Sources said the incident started as a domestic dispute Saturday morning when Daniel Rumon allegedly tied up his estranged wife.

The woman escaped and called 911.

Police said the woman had a protective order against the man. He was released from jail two months ago after previous guilty pleas on charges of stalking and assault.

When police officers arrived at the home on Gill Street, it was already on fire.

As the fired burned, police said a CERT and a bearcat to set up a perimeter to look for Rumon.

"It's just crazy. We were out of town, and the next thing I knew, the SWAT team was here. There were fire trucks, police, ambulance. It was crazy. We saw smoke. We didn't know what was going on," Jeff Klingensmith, who lives nearby, said.

A state police helicopter with infrared technology found Rumon near a creek bed with a loaded gun about five hours later.

Rumon was taken from the hospital to judge Jason Buczak's office for violation of an existing PFA order. He will be officially charged Thursday.
